[0136]Effects on Female Sexual Functioning of a Low Dose, Sublingual Formulation of Cyclobenzaprine in Subjects with Military-Related PTSD after 12 Weeks of Treatment

[0137]Methods: In this 12-week, multicenter, adaptive design, randomized controlled fixed-dose trial, 5.6 mg cyclobenzaprine-HCl (2×2.8 mg sublingual tablets, comprising a 75%±2% cyclobenzaprine-HCl and 25%±2% mannitol eutectic and a potassium phosphate dibasic anhydrous basifying agent) taken daily at bedtime was compared to placebo for the treatment of PTSD at 45 U.S. sites. Eligible participants (males and females) were 18-75 years of age, had experienced DSM-5 PTSD Criterion A-qualifying trauma(s) during military service since 2001, met DSM-5-defined PTSD by the Clinician-Administered PTSD Scale (CAPS-5), had a baseline CAPS-5 severity score ≥33, and were free of antidepressants, and free or washed off other psychotropic medications. A pre-planned interim analysis was conducted when about half the originally planned...

[0142]Effects on Female Sexual Functioning of a Sublingual Formulation of Cyclobenzaprine-HCl in Military and Civilian Phase 3 PTSD Trials: Preliminary Evidence for a Female-Specific Improvement in Sexual Functioning after 12 Weeks

[0143]Three randomized, placebo-controlled and double-blind clinical trials of the above described 5.6 mg cyclobenzaprine-HCl sublingual formulation (2×2.8 mg tablets) were performed, a Phase 2 study and a Phase 3 study in military-related PTSD, and a Phase 3 study in predominantly civilian PTSD. All three trials showed encouraging activity using the 5.6 mg cyclobenzaprine-HCl dose on clinician- and patient-rated global PTSD symptoms (Clinician Global Impression [CGI] and Patient Global Impression of Change [PGIC]). Given the very low rates of adverse events related to sexual function in both drug and placebo groups in the Phase 2 study, a systematic study was undertaken to assess the effects of the treatment on female sexual functioning in subsequent Phas...

Description

CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS[0001]This application claims priority and benefit from U.S. Provisional Application No. 63 / 007,251, filed Apr. 8, 2020, the contents of which is hereby incorporated by reference in their entirety.BACKGROUND[0002]There is increasing documentation of the comorbidity of sexual dysfunction (SD) and posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) among veterans (Letica-Crepulj a et al., 2019). Compared to those without any mental health diagnosis or with a mental health diagnosis other than PTSD, veterans with PTSD are at a higher risk of SD. This is true regardless of chronicity of symptoms, age or other health concerns, suggesting that the mechanisms underlying such dysfunction are directly related to PTSD (Hirsch, 2009). Common types of SD in males include erectile dysfunction, sexual disinterest, and premature ejaculation; whereas common types of SD in females include fear of sex, arousal problems, orgasm problems, sexual disinterest, and vaginal pain. Mo...
